Safety
When using the instrument, scrupulously observe all the relevant
accident prevention measures established by law to ensure the
safety of the patient. It is well established that exposure of the
eye to intense light sources for extended periods of time poses a
risk of retinal photic injury.
Many ophthalmic instruments illuminate the eye with intense
light. Young children and persons with diseased eyes may be at
a higher risk. The risk may also be slightly increased if the person
being examined has had any exposure with the same instrument
or another ophthalmic instrument using an intense visible light
source during the previous 24 hours. This will apply particularly
if the eye has been subjected to retinal photography.
CAUTION - The light emitted from this instrument is potentially
hazardous. The longer the duration of exposure, the greater the
risk of ocular damage. Exposure to light from this instrument
when operated at maximum intensity will exceed the safety
guideline after 35 minutes.
